SECTION 8. SALARIES AND BENEFITS - Fiscal Year 2004-2005
Statement of Purpose
This section provides instructions for implementing the Fiscal Year
2004-2005 salary and benefit increases of $118.5 million from the funds
provided in Specific Appropriation 2070B. All allocations and
distributions of these funds are to be made in strict accordance with
the provisions of this act. For the purpose of calculating and
distributing allocations to agencies, all references to "base salary" in
this section refer to the base rate of pay as of July 1, 2003, modified
to include the 2003-2004 Fiscal Year appropriated salary increases.
References to "eligible" employees refer to employees who are, at a
minimum, meeting their required performance standards. If an
ineligible employee achieves performance standards subsequent to the
salary increase implementation date but on or before the end of the
fiscal year, the employee may receive an increase; however, such
increase shall be effective on the date the employee becomes eligible
but not retroactively.

Pay Grade Adjustments
It is the intent of the Legislature that minimums and maximums of each
pay grade or pay band shall be increased by 2.5 percent, effective
December 1, 2004. After the maximum of the pay grade or pay band is
increased by the competitive pay adjustment, if an employee's base rate
of pay is equal to or greater than the adjusted maximum of the
employee's pay grade or pay band, the employee will be granted a
one-time, lump-sum payment in lieu of an increase to the employee's base
rate of pay. When an employee's base rate of pay is less than the
adjusted maximum of the employee's pay grade or pay band, the employee's
salary will be increased to the adjusted maximum and the portion of the
increase that exceeds the adjusted maximum shall be granted instead in a
one-time lump-sum payment.
